Seeking Box Office Manager
Door Shakespeare is a professional theatre, presenting the works of William Shakespeare in the outdoor setting of the gardens of Björklunden, just south of Baileys Harbor, in Door County.
The Box Office Manager maximizes revenue from the sale of tickets and ensures the highest standard of customer care in both the daytime box office and the theatre venue.
